2. How does knowing about compositional guidelines help you become a stronger photographer?

3. Out of your shooting assignment, which image ended up being your favorite/best? Why? What compositional rule did you use?

4. Look at your contact sheet. Is there a compositional guideline that you tend to shoot a lot? Why do you think that guideline is easier for you to see?​5. Which guideline if the hardest for your to capture? Why do you think that?
